Hamilton, New Zealand WEL Networks Full time

Cutting edge role supporting our DSO transformation
- Full medical, life and income protection insurance
- Potential to work a 9-day fortnight and the ability to purchase additional leave

The electricity industry is facing a significant challenge due to decarbonisation and electrification. As part of WEL’s long term strategy to manage the energy trilemma of sustainability, resiliency and affordability, we have created a new role to support our transformation towards a DSO (Distribution System Operator) through reinforcing collaboration between field services and network management, and by integrating the latest field technologies with engineering design to accelerate our pace on network visibility and flexibility management.

The transition to a ‘Net Zero’ carbon emissions electricity system means that we must look at the technology of the future and how we prepare to capitalise on these new innovations. Net Zero Grid Pathways (NZGP) looks at the system-wide requirements and dependencies that will enable electrification through new generation to connect to the grid, accommodate both new and growing customer load bases, move power to where it's needed, and continue to provide a secure and reliable power system.

**In this role you will**:

- Work with our Asset Management team to design, build and operate the WEL smart metering mesh radio network, which is a real time dynamic self-healing system that provides network visibility for network planning, engineering design, operation and lifecycle management.
- Install DERs and IoT devices on the electricity network to enable non-network solutions to manage network capacity and supply quality issues using network flexibility.

As a technology futurist, you need two critical capabilities - firstly, to be able to understand the technology itself and secondly, to be able to translate that technology into real world impact in a way that everyone can understand.

**Skills and Experience**:
**Best-in-class Benefits**

At WEL, we look after our people, and you’ll benefit from a powerful package of benefits:

- Medical, life, and income protection insurance
- Flexible working options - time in lieu, ability to purchase additional annual leave, 9-day fortnight, and much more
- Relocation costs, and
- An excellent salary package, including annual salary reviews, on-call allowance and paid overtime

We are committed to making sure our people go home safe every day, and with a drug and alcohol-free worksite we will require you to undertake testing as part of your pre-employment health assessment as well as participating in our annual health assessment programme.

**About WEL Networks**

We’ve been serving the Waikato for over 100 years, distributing electricity from the national grid so we can power over 100,000 homes and businesses. With over 330 employees, we’re proudly based in Hamilton and are owned by the community we work for.
